Until an official fix is released, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to post duplication. Avoid granting contributor or higher privileges broadly. Follow updates from thehappymonster for any official patches or temporary mitigations.
Description
The Happy Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to insufficient authorization on the duplicate_thing() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.10.4. This makes it possible for attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to clone arbitrary posts (including private and password protected ones) which may lead to information exposure.
